地理学与区域开发整治的政策研究

区域开发整治中的政策研究主要包括对现行政策进行效果评价和影响分析，并预测其对区域开发整治可能产生的积极和消极作用，从而为现行政策修正以及新政策的制定提供依据，供决策机构参考。区域开发整治政策具有地方性、阶段性和稳定性特征。地理学在区域开发整治中重点研究的应是自然、经济和社会相互联结的综台性政策问题，主要有资源利用政策、环境保护政策、生产布局政策以及城市发展政策等等。

GEOGRAPHY AND POLICY RESEARCH IN REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT

In regional development, geography should not restrict its applied studies to comprehensive survey, regionalization and planning. It should also take part in policy research and play a role of brain trust. It is very important for geographers to make policy research in regional development: (1) Promoting planning -implementation; (2) Raising the status of geography in social practice; (3) Improving the academic level of geography; (4) Strengthening the rationality of policy. Geographers Can make policy research in two aspects. First, evaluating the effects of policy and predicting its positive and negative influences in the future. Second, putting forward specific suggestions for policy-makers to modify the present policy and formulate a new one. The policy in regional development has the basic features of localizability, phasibility, and relative stability. Geography should focus on the comprehensive policies related to natural, economic and social factors, such as resources exploitation and utilization policy, environmental protection policy, and production allocation policy.
